— London-based singer-songwriter-producer Natanya shares her new single, “DON’T ASK!”, a statement of self-possession that confronts both personal insecurities and external expectations.
Executive-produced by Natanya alongside Oscar Scheller, “DON’T ASK!” is anchored in the belief that closed mouths don’t get fed, bringing a renewed sense of attitude and urgency to pop.
Speaking on her new single, Natanya shares,
“This song began as a set of chords I put together on my Yamaha E.Piano. I’d thought up a hook and started writing more lyrics while in the studio. Oscar Scheller brought it to life with synths, MIDI strings, and acoustic piano – I really wanted to give it that marching band feel. It’s an anthem about girl power, agency, and refusing to wait for permission.”
This single is the latest release since her double EP Feline’s Return and Feline’s Return Act II, which marked a bold evolution in her sound as she embraces a more classic pop-driven approach while building on the foundations laid in her debut EP and coming-of-age project, Sorrow at Sunrise.
Natanya’s music has received early yet abundant critical acclaim, alongside notable co-signs from SZA, Tyler, The Creator, Clairo, RAYE, Aminé, Coco Gauff and Slayyyter. She has also built a strong live presence, touring with FLO in 2023 and Destin Conrad in 2024, and most recently joining Ravyn Lenae, PinkPantheress and Mereba on the road last year.
